ComFest

Web: comfest.com

People always find lots of reasons to complain about ComFest: Too stuck in the past! Not faithful enough to the past! You left out my band! It's too crowded! Yet that last complaint hints at the bottom line: The institution formally known as Community Festival remains summer's biggest, most popular event, and for good reason. Nowhere else can you find so much Columbus culture on a single block, with ample stimulation for ears, eyes and stomach. It ain't easy being everything to everyone, but ComFest does its damnedest every summer, and Columbus is better for it.
